Stop Just Uploading Raw Clips
45sDirectly challenges the common lazy practice of uploading unedited clips, promising a simple editing method that can boost views.
▶ Play ClipThis video provides a step-by-step guide on how to edit streamer clips for TikTok, using a simple editing program called CapCut. The creator demonstrates how to create a 4x3 format, overlay a webcam, adjust audio, add subtitles, and cut clips for dynamic viewing.
Simply downloading and uploading clips without editing doesn't get many views; editing is necessary for engagement.
CapCut is recommended as it's available on both phone and computer, with similar mechanisms across platforms.
Select the 9x16 format (TikTok format) to make videos fit properly and increase reach.
Copy the video (Ctrl C, Ctrl V) to create two identical layers placed exactly at the start.
Zoom in the top layer to show the webcam (reaction/emotions) and place it in the corner, typically top-left or top-right.
Stretch the bottom layer to fill the screen without black bars, ensuring the main content is visible.
Turn off sound on one layer to avoid double audio; keep sound only on the bottom layer.
Lock the top (webcam) layer to prevent accidental movement while editing the bottom layer.
Use the cut tool to divide the video at points where the screen changes, then adjust the bottom layer accordingly.
Use automatic subtitles (Russian language) for the bottom layer, then adjust style (e.g., black and yellow) and position between webcam and main video.
Add quiet, neat background music to enhance the video without overpowering the voiceover.
The simplest editing method for streamer clips involves overlaying a webcam, scaling the main video, adding subtitles, and cutting for dynamics. Practice and experience will improve the quality of edits.

05:48[00:03] Today I will tell you and show you how to edit cuts with a streamer in the last video I told you uh an easy way to do this of this business Yani that is what
[00:15] We just download the cut and upload But a lot of views so Don't chop That's why you have to edit and in this video I will show you the simplest editing that anyone can use at all
[00:30] I edit and will show you using the example of one of the easy programs this is CAD That is, it is both on the phone and on the computer from the phone unfortunately I won't be able to show it today because well, I don't edit from the phone But
[00:45] basically the mechanisms are the same, just with the interface So I even downloaded it just now I am going through some kind of first training But I do [ __ ] to show using the example of the videos that I edited for my channel
[01:02] What we do We have videos Yes, conditionally I will explain everything pointwise Uh from A to Z And Let's get started Look, we have a video Yes, Uh, I I want to make it in
[01:15] 4x3 format. That's right, we're making the TikTok format. We're making a cutting format so that our videos fly in more. Here we select the 9x1 format. This is what makes it select the 9x1 format. This is what makes it automatically 4x3. What do I do next with
[01:30] this video? I take and copy this Look, we have two identical videos, and they should stand exactly next to
[01:45] each other, that is, so that no one rests against each other clearly, but simply at the zero second. Their Primates, how did we do it? We took, copied, Ctrl C, Ctrl V, and pasted over. That's all we have are two videos. How do I make the top one? I make this thing a
[02:00] webcam and put my webcam on top. That is, I zoom in to the scale of my webcam, and let's say it's in the corner. I zoom in to this corner and put it up. What makes my webcam up and, like, my reaction, my
[02:16] emotions, everything is on top. Why do I do it on top? Because usually at the bottom, that's where you see the black square now, here, uh, in TikTok, there's a description, tags. and
[02:28] Well, it doesn't capture completely, and in fact, there's nothing on top. And you can qualitatively show a person's emotions. Yes, conditionally, then the lower timelapse that we have, we also stretch it, but we stretch it so that, uh, Well, not very close. And so that
[02:45] we can understand, uh, the essence, that is, so that the person who watched understands the essence from above, he sees the person's emotions that he shows from below, he sees what's actually happening here. Play completely differently, the main thing is not to
[02:59] do it like this so that you don't have any black squares here. You should expand as much as possible so that it looks nice and so that the essence is talking about? Look, I turned down the sound as I
[03:16] do, guys, here we have so that there is no double sound and not such a high volume. On one of these videos, we leave the sound, and on the other, we turn it off, take revenge, leave the sound, and on the other, we turn it off, take revenge, it's
[03:35] Well, in this video, I already watched it before this, and I know that I will now move to another part of the screen. What I do is I take our lower timelapse, which is responsible for the fact that we show what we show, we show our screen. Uh,
[03:49] what's happening, that is, not I don't touch my webcam reaction. I can basically lock it here and put this top layer aside so that it can't be moved or done anything with it. This is where I start to
[04:03] change something and my screen goes away, that is, conditionally from the middle, there to the right or to is, conditionally from the middle, there to the right or to the left. I take it, do it this way, cut it off, and we have a new one starting. We divided the video. What was before will
[04:18] remain, and what's new, I can play with it as I want. I take a new fragment of the video here and here I show that we video here and here I show that we need to go to the extension,
[04:35] that we have a 4x3 format and we don't have something like you now. Look at the video, what you can see is every detail, every pixel. We don't have that, guys. We have pixel. We don't have that, guys. We have everything minimalist, and the main thing for us is to
[04:50] and clearly. You can cut clearly. You can cut some moments, uh, that is, some hesitations, you can cut and trim. Well, I think that's clear. That is, how to trim is the same.
[05:06] That's how I trimmed this. You can also use the button to divide other materials and, for example, delete them, so to return back, press the Ctrl Z combination and back, press the Ctrl Z combination and we return to the action back,
[05:20] so when we paused, the action takes place again on the main page, that is, again in the middle, focusing, what we do is we press divide again, reduce it, naturally, so that it
[05:32] is more comfortable for the viewer to watch, and that is, [music]
[05:48] it, as usual, depends on the mood, at times it is needed, at times it is absolutely not needed here, what we need to do for the dynamics of this video, for the dynamics of this video, we need to do su But of course, we will not write everything
[06:02] manually, so we select our bottom line where we have the video and where we actually have the voiceover, the audio track, then we go to the text and here we make automatic subtitles, press Russian and create How I do it, I make it
[06:18] as comfortable and convenient as possible so that it is not conspicuous for the viewer to watch them, but at the same time they are not very small, I underline them, here we do not highlight everything Well, maybe something will not highlight, let's say you
[06:31] accidentally cool Somewhere and you have removed everything from the selection, you hold down removed everything from the selection, you hold down Ctrl and drag and drag here along the free hole with the mouse and just collect only with the control held down, don't
[06:45] forget and again we have our entire text selected. How I do it, I take, uh, the most default, for example, this can be done in black and yellow. That is, there are already pre-made styles that, in principle, are beautifully eye-catching, well, and so as
[07:01] not to worry. That is, you can take and already with some ready-made text styles, uh, and already with some ready-made text styles, uh, play around so here we need to increase. To increase our text, you need to hold down the font size. You can also make
[07:17] a slope and make them more beautiful and how I do it now, the main thing I'll show you how I make subtitles. I make subtitles between the webcam and the main video material that is running so that it does not interfere, that is, so that it does not cover
[07:33] some important part of the video. Here, watch how the subtitles will go. Rova guys, today I want to tell you what to do if your YouTube is lagging. YouTube shorts and here are different words. Someone Someone is correcting it. Like, it's uploading it like this. You can do it
[07:48] again a little lower and put it, for example, like this, a little, that is, so that it feels like someone has installed a miner on you. We're watching everything, naturally, we're correcting subtitles where needed, in places where not needed, and uh, we
[08:04] can upload some quiet, neat music that suits the background, and basically that's it. That is, this is the easiest way. How to edit cuts for different streamers,
[08:18] YouTubers, TikTokers. Who pays for this? Just throw in the subtitles, highlight the Just throw in the subtitles, highlight the top picture, put the faces on top, and put the main format at the bottom, and don't forget. All the time,
[08:32] play around somehow, that is, somewhere in the moment, take a cut here so that the viewer is also held here, in the moment, take a cut with the control held down, we
[09:00] here, in principle, well, in principle, it's normal, he thinks like this. Here, too, you can cut it. Well, you need to feel it all, it all comes with experience, guys, you'll make a couple of cuts, and that is, it will be real. For fun, we'll
[09:14] For fun, we'll put on some smooth music and put on some smooth music and highlight the face of our cutter or streamer at the top, and show some key moments at the bottom and
